Luke or anyone...Which runflats?

[MVP]

Kumho or Michelin?? Daily Driven C5. Rain and occasional snow. I see that tire rack list the Michelin as All season. Is the $300 more for the Michelins worth it?

The Michelin is truely an all-season tire so, it is your only real choice as summer tires like the Kumho do not do very well when temps are below 40 degrees and can not move in frozen precipitation

I am going through a search for tires, and my conclusion between the tires you list is to go with the Michelin A/S if you are going to do cold or wet weather.
I'm trying to decide between the Goodyear D3 and the Michelin Sport A/S - but I won't be driving in snow.

I just went with the Michelin pilot sport ZP

For me, it's down to the GS-D3s and the A/S ZPs.

Unfortunately, Tire Rack lists the fronts on backorder.

Luke, do you know when you guys might get them back in stock?

Got a pair of Michelins from Luke and learned to ski in the Vette on my way through Utah last week. Don't plan to drive in snow but when you have to get home.... anyway, the tires worked great and really showed how crappy my worn out Goodyear EMTs were.

Got home and put on the front Michelins (had to spread over 2 paychecks) and did an alignment. Night and day!!! Love my car now more than ever before.

You will not be sorry with the Michelins.

The Michelins really are a great tire for a daily driver C5 if you want to stick with the runflats. Way better than the original Goodyears!

I just put on a set of the Michelin ZPs. So far, I'm fairly impressed with them. They're noticibly quieter than the OE GoodYears, however that means that I can hear wind noises and other things that I didn't hear before!
